What will you start? College is a time for new beginnings. New friends. New classes. New ambitions. New starts.​​​​​​​

Intro Paragraph

At Furman, we are all starters. We start ideas, we start clubs, we start teams and we start research. We start our own majors with the Individualized Curriculum Program, our own internships with Furman Advantage, and our own explorations through the Cultural Life Program. And somewhere along the way, we start to think differently. Here, where a premier liberal arts and sciences education is paramount, we start to understand what it means to learn. We learn what we're capable of, and we learn to go after it.

Beginnings

Yesterday was Furman’s Commencement ceremony for the Class of 2015. I’d like to say I was ready for it when it came, but to be honest, I wasn’t at all. I have adored my time at Furman more than I ever thought possible when I moved into Blackwell Hall in August 2011. At the time, I […]

the people

Hey friends, It’s been a great year. I’ve grown, learned, and had fun along the way. But one things out the most, the people. The people here at Furman have made it home.
